The Pentagon has denied the Taliban shot down a US military plane over Afghanistan killing everyone on board, despite the terror group claiming responsibility.
Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the militant group, said that high-ranking American officers were among the dead after the aircraft was brought down in Dih Yak district around 1.10pm local time.
US officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said there were no indications so far that the plane had been brought down by enemy activity.
One of the officials said there were believed to be fewer than 10 people on board the small military plane.

And our soldiers in Iraq only had "headaches." You can't trust this administration to tell the truth about ANYTHING.
Okay so where's the outrage over military personnel being killed and an embassy being bombed? We sacrifice our young adults for politics and the ONLY time our government supports our trips is political manipulation
Get the hell OUT of there > NO need to be there !!!!
America needs to STOP Nation Building !!!! World Policing too
Northwest Woodsman: Reconnaissance aircraft down with few facts as to the cause of the crash being released. As an aviator, you find that
There are multiple opportunities to get yourself killed. Weather conditions, contaminated fuel, mechanical failures, technical support mistakes, pilot error, and probably several more that I can’t recall, plus, in combat there is always the threat of ground fire, anti-aircraft fire, and missiles to deal with. I found after flight school, that I had a seven times greater opportunity to be killed in combat than an infantry officer carrying a rifle on the ground.
